"Take the past and hold it like a photograph, 'Cos it's the only way to say goodbye." --Chris de Burgh, The Best That Love Can Be, from Timing Is Everything, 2002

chris de burgh is proof the three stooges had children.

I'm not gonna make a point on this. Thats my point

At last, Chris De Burgh is getting some sort of recognition. He is without doubt one of the greatest Argentinian/Irish/English singers to come out of Argentina, Ireland and England. 'Far Beyond These Castle Walls' and 'Spanish Train and Other Stories' are 2 of the greatest albums ever released in the 1970s ever! Also, 'High On Emotion: Live From Dublin' is unparalleled amongst live albums. The power, the energy, the indeed 'emotion' and the charisma from the great man himself oozes from the vinyl grooves. I never get tired of that album.Anyone that does, frankly there's something wrong with them. People go on about 'Humanzi', 'The Chalets', 'super stanley 845' and all these supposedly 'cool' bands (ha, they wouldn't know cool if they were trapped in an industrial freezer on the north pole for 450 million years!!)that hang out in Whelans and spend their saturday afternoons buying rare vinyl pressings of Throbbing Gristle and the like and wondering how many weeks it is until the next HWCH festival and the like, but they will never, ever be in the same league as Chris De Burgh. Fact! I defy anyone to sit through 97's 'The Love Songs' without crying and /or declaring their love for the nearest female/male in their vicinity. Chris De Burgh is a GENIUS, up there with Lennon, Drake, The Monkees and REO Speedwagon. 'Nuff' said.
